National Short Term Outlook
Heavy rains/flash flooding possible for parts of Florida through the weekend. A developing tropical disturbance in the western Caribbean sea/near Central America and the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico slings moisture north into a stationary front stuck across the Florida peninsula through the weekend. Combined with cooler air behind the front moving over warm Gulf Stream waters within a saturated airmass, the stage remains set for heavy rainfall/flash flooding particularly near the Gold Coast of the Sunshine State. A flood watch remains in effect there into the evening of October 4th/Sunday.
Heat continues in the West. A warm core ridge out West will be slow to fade through the weekend. This will lead to possible record high temperatures Friday and Saturday for the Western states, with the record high potential receding southward into the Southwest on Sunday as the northern portion of the ridge fades. Excessive Heat Warnings and Heat Advisories are in effect along coastal California. When combined with continuing dry conditions, wildfire/brush fire concerns continue. Air Quality Alerts are also in effect for portions of the West Coast due to the combination of smoke from area fires and the high pressure ridge trapping pollutants near ground level.
Autumn continues from the Midwest to the East Coast. High pressure currently situated over the Plains will continue to drag cool continental Canadian air south across the central and eastern U.S. on the backside of a deep upper level trough. The upper trough itself will keep conditions unsettled, with some light precipitation expected through the weekend as a weak wave of low pressure progresses from west to east. A few spots may see record cool high temperatures across the Midwest on Friday. High wind gusts and dry conditions over the Northern Plains could lead to brush fires/an elevated risk of wildfires on Friday.

Indiana Moves to Stage 5 of Back on Track Indiana (Covid-19 Response)
Under this adjusted Stage 5, face coverings remain required.
Organizers of events with more than 500 people in attendance will be required to submit a plan to the local health department that outlines measures to mitigate COVID-19.
Restaurants and bars that serve food may open at full capacity as long as six feet of space to maintain social distancing is in place. Customers must be seated at a table or counter.
Indoor and outdoor venues may open at full capacity with social distancing measures in place. Senior centers and congregate meal sites may open with precautions. Personal services and gyms and fitness centers may resume normal operations with social distancing safeguards and cleaning protocols in place.
Details and guidance are updated at BackOnTrack.in.gov and in Executive Order 20-43.
I also signed an executive order extending the public health emergency an additional 30 days.

Highland Main Street Hosts Monthly Restaurant Crawl On September 29th
HIGHLAND | Downtown Highland will be the venue for a new monthly restaurant crawl, beginning September 29th, organized by the Highland Main Street Bureau. Future events will take place on the last Tuesday of each month. The event will feature nine of Highland’s downtown restaurants, each of which
have agreed to provide either a drink, appetizer, small entrรฉe, or dessert for $5 or less. The restaurants are encouraged to change their monthly selection each month to provide variety and to attract repeat customers. Some offers will be available for dine-in only.
The participating restaurants include: Joseโs Family Restaurant, Langelโs Pizza, Danโs Pierogies, Mariaโs Buena Cochina, Growlers, The Counter Ice Cream and Italian Ice, Traditionโs, Sakura Bowl and Sip Coffee 2.
โHighland Main Street wanted to find an opportunity to assist downtown restaurants, which were hard hit by the ongoing COVID-19 emergency,โ President Dawn Diamantopoulos said. โWe thought that a monthly restaurant crawl, held on what is generally a slower business weekday, would be an ideal way to showcase our great downtown dining options.โ The restaurant crawl events will begin at 5:00 pm.
For more information, contact Dawn Diamantopopulos at dawndiamantopoulos@ymail.com or 219.301.0369.
